Definitely in transportation and healthcare. Probably in education once Trump gets rid of the Department of Education.

Sorry I edited my comment. I think the difference, not just being able to comment, but is being able to post. Like not everyone is able to post an article in Gizmodo but anyone can post a video on YouTube, or a story on Instagram.

This is just my own thoughts on it. I don't actually know what the official definition of social media is.

Some ways I saw around this is by being in another country, and/or getting some bullshit PhD. I see a lot of chiropractors giving nutrition advice.

Even if they don't call themselves doctor, they will say they are a medical practitioner, or health expert because of their self published PDF book or their shitty blog.

I do consider Lemmy and Reddit and other content aggregators social media.

I might be mistaken but I think being able to comment on YouTube and anyone is able to upload a video puts it in the social media category.

I use social media from time to time. The amount of misinformation that is created and spewed without consequence is really alarming. A lot of it is dangerous. People give medical advice and pretend to be doctors. That should be illegal.

If they could filter out all the garbage content and just have children cartoons, comics, food, and cute animals, I would be fine letting kids watch it from time to time.

There are electric conversion kits for certain cars.

There are older buildings in NYC that have a lot of floors that don't have elevators. One I looked at was 7 floors, it was called a 7 floor walk up. New buildings in NYC that are 5 floors or more higher need an elevator.

I really want to see studies of the percentage of autistic children born in urban areas versus rural areas.

Despite this shady website, I have heard this theory before.

You can watch this for free. At least I can, I'm not sure if it's location based.

We can go down the list. Jeff Bezos bought the Washington Post and Elon Musk wants to buy MSNBC.
